Public bug reported: I tried couple of commands:
dbus-monitor --profile "interface=org.gnome.Screensaver" and dbus-monitor --session "type='signal',interface='org.gnome.ScreenSaver',member='ActiveChanged'" Both of them cause a system crash within 5 - 20 seconds. I can't change vt or log in via ssh. Mouse pointer does not move. Once I managed to switch to vt1 before crash, and I managed to take a photo.
